    The problem with this particular subject is that most people white or black have little interest in the history of hip hop and American music in general. There were people of all ethnicities or races involved in the beginning of Hip hop.Any black person who deprecates those who also enjoy country, bluegrass or rock is a person with little knowledge of the contribution of African Americans to the musical culture of this country. Know your history. A tree without roots will not grow.

    The use of the word buddy for some is a replacement for boy or nigger. I have stood in line at a store and watched a younger white customer greeted with sir, then I was referred to with bud or buddy. It’s just a matter of respect.
